Abstract:The non-uniform settlements represent a big challenge for the structural engineers because of the problems caused by this phenomenon, where many cracks in the walls, columns and slabs occurred due to the non uniform settlements, which ranges from small cracks to major cracks that threat the safety of the building and the residents. Along the years, the geotechnical engineers have developed many methods to find the settlements in soil. However, these methods need certain expertise in the properties and the cond… Show more
